lunch

Kids in Roosevelt High School on Chicago's Northwest Side have been receiving burnt pizza, rotten fruit and generally unhealthy, unappetizing school lunches. Most people don't get excited about school lunch but this takes it a little too far and the kids at this school decided to do something about it. They've created something called The School Lunch Project: Culinary Denial where they share information about the school's lunch provider Aramark as well as pictures of unsatisfactory lunches like this one:

Ultimately, their demands are for better alternatives to the lunch they are offered. Currently, Aramark benefits by being the only food provider in school and lowering their bottom line as much as possible. If kids don't eat, the company might have to change their menu or risk losing profits.

Do you dream of taking a leisurely lunch break while at work? Well, if it's any consolation, at least you're not the only dreamer chomping down a lonely bagel sandwich at your desk. Enter Sad Desk Lunch, a single topic Tumblr blog dedicated to curating user-submitted photos of "depressing meals" at work.
